Water Bore and Hard Rock Drilling Specialists
Decades of Drilling Experience Across Western Australia
B&T Drilling has a long history in Western Australia, originally beginning in Sandstone in 1980 as a drill-and-blast contractor. Today, operating from our Bullsbrook base, we specialise primarily in hard rock water bore drilling for rural properties, farms, businesses and larger commercial projects throughout WA.
Our experience working across a wide range of ground conditions allows us to take a practical and informed approach to every job. Before drilling begins, we review available groundwater information, nearby bore records and our own historical drilling data to understand the area better and plan the work.
Our truck-mounted drilling equipment is capable of working in difficult hard-rock formations while remaining suitable for access on rural and residential properties. We also have the equipment and experience to support selected exploration and remote drilling projects where required.
Whether we are drilling through granite in the Perth Hills or working on a remote site elsewhere in Western Australia, our focus remains the same: reliable equipment, safe work practices, clear communication and completing every job to the best possible standard.

Water bore drilling and selected exploration services across Western Australia
B&T Drilling provides hard rock water bore drilling, bore cleanouts and selected Reverse Circulation exploration drilling services across Western Australia.
Our main focus is water bore drilling for rural properties, farms, commercial sites and larger residential blocks of one acre or more. We also support selected exploration projects where the proposed work suits our equipment and capabilities.
Each project is planned around the site conditions, access requirements and intended outcome. Our crews place a strong emphasis on safety, reliable equipment, clear communication and straightforward pricing before work begins.

Hard-Rock Water Bore Drilling
Water bore drilling for rural properties, farms, commercial sites and larger residential blocks throughout the Perth Hills and regional Western Australia.
Our equipment is configured for drilling through granite and other hard-rock formations. Before drilling begins, we review the available groundwater information, nearby bore records, site access and local geological conditions to help plan the work.
Groundwater depth, flow rate and quality cannot be guaranteed before drilling.

Bore Cleanouts and Maintenance
Cleaning and redevelopment services for bores affected by reduced flow, sediment, iron-related buildup or mineral deposits.
Depending on the bore’s construction and condition, the work may include airlifting, air lancing, flushing or bore-specific chemical treatment.
Cleaning may improve bore performance in suitable circumstances, but not every bore can be fully restored. B&T Drilling does not carry out structural column repairs or underground casing realignment.

Reverse Circulation Exploration Drilling
Selected RC exploration drilling services for mineral exploration programs across Western Australia.
Our Thor RC 5000 is configured primarily for hard-rock water bore drilling while retaining the capability to undertake RC drilling when required.
Before accepting an exploration project, we review the expected geology, target depths, access conditions, sampling requirements and site standards to confirm that the work is suitable for our equipment and crew.

Groundwater Assessment and Bore Siting
We combine available groundwater records, nearby bore information, local drilling experience and, where requested, traditional water divining to help identify a practical drilling location.
While no method can guarantee groundwater, its depth, flow rate or quality, this assessment supports a more informed decision before drilling begins.

AREAS WE
SERVICE
B&T Drilling is based in Bullsbrook and provides water bore drilling, bore maintenance and selected exploration drilling services throughout Western Australia.
Ground conditions can vary significantly between regions and even between neighbouring properties. From hard granite throughout the Perth Hills and Chittering to the varied geology and groundwater conditions found across regional WA, we plan each job around the location, access, ground conditions and project requirements.
Our support vehicles and equipment allow us to mobilise to rural properties, farms, commercial sites and remote projects across the state.
Recent Projects
See B&T Drilling’s equipment, experience and approach in the field
Our recent projects reflect the range of drilling conditions and locations we work across throughout Western Australia.
From hard rock water bores in the Perth Hills and surrounding rural areas to larger commercial and remote drilling projects, each job is planned around the site conditions, access requirements and the client’s intended use.
Throughout the drilling process, we keep clear records of the formations encountered, bore depth, groundwater inflows and measured flow rates. For water bore projects, clients are provided with a bore log containing the information needed to assist with pump selection and future bore management.
